Why pay NGOs to involve the community? (2015)
Journal Article
Burger, R., Dasgupta, I., & Owens, T. (2015). Why pay NGOs to involve the community?. Annals of Public and Cooperative Economics, 86(1), https://doi.org/10.1111/apce.12065

We examine the case for donors providing financial incentives to, i.e. subsidizing, NGOs to increase community participation. We show that the introduction of such a ‘participation subsidy’ may reduce beneficiary welfare. Thus, eliminating community... Read More about Why pay NGOs to involve the community?.
